Hi stockman scott; Interesting read. Re: "Americans believed the recycled myth that as a superpower we have super power--a silly, dangerous idea that has led us directly into another bloody Vietnam-type quagmire."

Reminds me of what I was saying. Oh, here it is:

Hey, worst case analysis is a wonderful thing, but you can only pursue its dreamy logic if you're superman. We're only a superpower, we do not have superpowers.

Greeks fought the Ottoman Empire that had invaded them and occupied them for 400 YEARS! They fought back the evil that had invaded and was killing their people the same way that the Iraqis are fighting back now the evil that has invaded and is killing their people. Guess what? The Greeks won. Those that don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
